We are all with stupid

The image “http://www.tattoowaikiki.com/themimages/stupid.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.Reality is a genre too easily abused by the networks, and these lapses into bottom-of-the-barrel are easily picked on by the press.

We're not about to take a stand against all reality T.V. - far from it. We do, however, find this article interesting. It deals with how reality television is skewed towards portraying women as stupid, and the influence that this distortion has on viewers.

Just another reminder that lowest common denominator television is not "harmless" and that we should just "turn off" the television shows that offend us. A society is defined by its entertainment, and we don't want to be defined by Ashton Kutcher's latest experiment.
